Subject: do not tkae tyven too seriously
This is more of a response to Tyven9. This person runs down the author and the matrial by disounting everything that the author writes. But the only real thing he says is that the author does not know what thelema is or how it is used. Ok, but now tell the people what it really is and how it is really used. But he doesn't nor do I think tyven9 can. Having studied magick for many years I can and will tell you that for a beginner this book will give you a path to follow. Yes there are errors in it yet there are error in the old grimores too. This beginning knowledge will help the inniate start, if that is truely what they want. It is more to weed out the mere curious from the serious student willing to put in the time ,research and practice to get deeper into the more esoteric arts.

As a response to that comment: where might we find more accurate text, other than hoping to meet someone randomly?

Subject: Total Rubbish!
I'm glad I didn't pay for this book because it was a total load of crap and as an initiate of Thelema for the past 38 years, this book is 1. inaccurate - the author took way too many liberties and obviously does not understand Thelema. 2. Not nearly concise enough for the subject matter. What I saw and read here was some guy who's trying to grandstand with knowledge and experience he clearly does not have - spreading inaccuracies and misinformation, severely skewing what Thelema is and how it is used. The dead giveaway? He jumps right into magick. The mark of a grandstanding wannabe. This book would appeal to these wannabes who think that chaos magic will make them appear more powerful or intelligent to others or who want to be a witch in a week. That's NOT what Thelema is about. If any people reading this book and taking it as gospel ever encountered a REAL Thelemite, they would be shown in short order just how much they DO NOT know. This book is written for the average teenager who wants to make a rebellious stand against parents, church, society or try to impress their friends by pretending to embark on what is really pretty powerless magick. Liber Null is a good name because as far as true and meaningful knowledge and command of magick goes, this book is pretty void. This "order" that the author has put together appears nothing more than a role-playing game group. If people want to learn Thelema then seek out a real Thelemite and ask to be educated as an initiate. Don't waste your time on this kind of misinformation - learn properly! There are a lot of things critical to Thelema and other paths of Occultism that will never be found in books.
